What we’re asked for most in Moortown
The jobs that come up again and again in Moortown, each with a written estimate before work starts.
- Consumer unit upgradesThe semi-detached houses and council flats on estates such as Lingfield may still run on an older fuse board without RCD protection.
- Attic and extension wiringAdding a loft room or rear extension to a Moortown semi means new circuits, planned in and certified with the rest of the house.
- EV charger installationHouses along Black Moor Road range from the 1950s to recent builds, and those with a drive can take a wall charger once the supply is checked.
- EICR testingQueenshill's low-rise flats opened in 1962, so a flat there may still have wiring over sixty years old that is worth testing.

Electrical work in Moortown
Moortown is in north-east Leeds, between Roundhay and Gledhow to the east and Weetwood to the west, with Chapel Allerton to the south and Alwoodley to the north. It is covered by the LS17 and LS8 postcode districts. Moortown Corner, where Street Lane meets Harrogate Road, is the local shopping area and the usual reference point for directions. North of the ring road, Black Moor has housing from the 1950s to the present day and Lingfield is mainly semi-detached houses and council flats. South of the ring road, Queenshill is mostly low-rise flats opened in 1962, and the Moor Allerton district centre has served the area since 1982.
With homes spanning more than seventy years, the work changes from one street to the next. Older estate houses and flats may still have a fuse board with no RCD protection, and a consumer unit upgrade adds that protection across every circuit. Where a family is extending or converting a loft, attic and extension wiring gets the new circuits certified alongside the old ones. Newer houses with a drive are well suited to a home EV charger, fitted after a check that the supply can take it.

Questions from Moortown
What people in Moortown ask us most. Not covered here? Ring and ask.
Do you cover LS17 and LS8 around Moortown Corner?
Yes. Moortown Corner, where Street Lane meets Harrogate Road, and the estates north of the ring road, including Lingfield and Black Moor, are well within our coverage. For anything on the fringes of LS17, message us first.
Are the 1960s flats in Moortown due an electrical check?
If the wiring has not been tested for a while, yes. The Queenshill flats date from 1962, and an EICR will show whether the circuits, earthing and consumer unit are still safe. Owner-occupiers are advised to test every ten years, landlords every five.
